I'm beginning to think so, another full day out and back if I want to view this one, I have asked for more Photo's of the Underside, Interior, Etc but as yet no response I'm very tempted to have a ride down and check it out.

Its a 400 mile round trip to view it though and a bank holiday weekend coming up, do I really want to get stuck in a jam on the M1? I'll sleep on it Gary Edited August 23, 2023 by Gary Flinn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure about eBay's current 'message seller' routine where you have to supply your postcode, phone number etc before the message will go through, seems very open to scammers? (I don't mean scammers messaging the seller, i mean having to list all your own info before the message will go?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I don't mean scammers messaging the seller, i mean having to list all your own info before the message will go?) I did get one garbled reply back, I asked if they could send me more photo's of the underside/chassis, the interior, the Dashboard and the Boot area. The reply was brief stating its just got 12 Months M.O.T. So the Chassis is fine! I suspect the vendor won't take the time to send me any more photo's so its either bite the bullet and travel there and back in a day or pay for an overnight stay and take her indoors for a mini-break looking around Canterbury on the Monday? Someone I know who owns a Vitesse and lives within 20 Miles as offered to have a look for me so that's another option, if he reckons its a good one and worth viewing then I could travel down on the Sunday to view it The trouble is I will have to travel the 200+ miles back on a Bank Holiday afternoon/evening and that fills me full of dread!! 😲 Edited August 23, 2023 by Gary Flinn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
